Default Getting "from" right in qmail-queue/-inject

For some reason the "from" name or whatever in the logs is not what
I'm expecting it to be. I think that's the basis of the problem. The
symptom is that when I send a message using qmail-queue or
qmail-inject, there aren't any problems if the recipient address is
right. If it is wrong, the DSN does not make it to the address in the
From: header. An arbitrary address appears as the "from" in the logs,
and not the "From:" in the e-mail. See below. I thought explictly
putting a Return-Path: might fix it, but it didn't. I thought it might
have something to do w/the fact that my server here is on a host using
NAT, but the same problem happens on another server.

I've read the man pages for queue and inject, and I don't see what
I could be missing. The problem is the same for both of them. The
systems running qmail are RH9.

Here's a list of relevant rpms again:
qmail-toaster-debuginfo-1.03-1.0.9
qmail-toaster-doc-1.03-1.0.9
qmailadmin-toaster-1.0.6-1.0.6
qmail-toaster-1.03-1.0.9
qmailmrtg-toaster-debuginfo-3.4-1.0.7
qmailmrtg-toaster-3.4-1.0.7
qmail-pop3d-toaster-1.03-1.0.9
qmailadmin-toaster-debuginfo-1.0.6-1.0.6

And here's what I had in /var/log/qmail/send/current:
